okay, i'll toss in.

conditions:
black ice warning in the morning, so I waited till later until 41f foggy with a little sun in the afternoon up to maybe 43-45. Out for a 3 hour ride on a big urban loop.

Head - windstopper N2S skullcap, helmet

torso- wool short sleeve full zip jersey over a wool long sleeve t-shirt. Dryskin jacket on top for the first 20 minutes, then ditched it to the saddlebag.

legs- Calvin Klein wicking boxer briefs, cropped Dryskin knickers

feet- smartwool ankle socks, summer mountain shoes, Pearl Izumi tosies for the first 20 minutes then off to the bag

hands- unlined cowhide work gloves, well oiled


notes: Stupid! I only wore 2 thin wool layers yesterday, didn't really need the jacket but it's always cold right when you leave the house

comments: Mountain Hardware windstopper next2skin beanie best helmet liner, guaranteed. Love these so much for every outdoor activity (used one for the last 4-5 years I guess..) I bought 2 extra for a total of three in case they stop making them
